IDEA!

I’LL EXPLAIN!

CREATIVE COMMONS LICENSES

Creative common licenses are six copyright licenses that allow the distribution of copyrighted works.

THE LICENSES

THERE ARE SIX LICENSES, WHAT ARE THEY??

THE FIRST LICENSE!!

ATTRIBUTION

ATTRIBUTIONThis is the most accommodating license offered. It lets others distribute, remix, tweak, and build upon your work. They can do this as long as they credit you for your work.

THE SECOND LICENSE!!

ATTRIBUTION-SHAREALIKE

.

ATTRIBUTION-SHAREALIKE

Others can do things to your creations. They can do this if they credit you for their work, AND if they license their new creations under the identical terms. Their new works based on yours will carry the same license.

THE THIRD LICENSE!!ATTRIBUTION-NoDERIVS

ATTRIBUTION-NoDERIVS

This third license allows for redistribution, commercial, and non commercial. This happens if your information is passed along unchanged and in whole. It has to have credits to you.

THE FOURTH LICENSE!!ATTRIBUTION-

NonCOMMERCIAL

ATTRIBUTION-NonCOMMERCIAL

This fourth license lets others use your work and do things with it, like the previous licenses. Although their new works have to acknowledge you and be non commercial, they don’t have to license their derivative works on the same terms

THE FIFTH LICENSE!!

ATTRIBUTION-NON COMMERCIAL-SHAREALIKE

Others can do things with your work, but they have to credit you and and license their new creations under the identical terms

THE SIXTH LICENSE!!ATTRIBUTION-NON

ATTRIBUTION-NON COMMERCIAL-NoDERIVS

The most restrictive license of the six! This license only lets others download your work and share them with others as long as they credit you. They can’t change your work at all! You also can’t use them commercially.

3. “Machine Readable”: The final layerrecognizes that software (search engines, music editing, etc.) plays a big role in the creation, copying, discovery, and distribution of works. To make it easier for the Web, there is a “machine readable” version of the license. It is in a format that search engines and other technologies can understand.
